Letters on the Tutoring School Issue

To the Editor of the Crimson:

May I offer my hearty congratulations upon your assumption of leadership in attacking the Tutoring schools, which the officers and directors of your institution have failed to do.

A member of the class of Harvard, 1937, who attended this school, publicly boasted that he had received a diploma from Harvard after attending only five classes between February and June of his senior year. Another member of this year's freshman class, had forty-eight outs from classes before Christmas. At the time of the Harvard-Yale football game in Cambridge a year ago, one of our graduates visited the quarters of some Harvard friends; and reported that there were sixteen men living together in one house, that the entire house contained but one desk; and that not a single book was in sight anywhere.

Altho I feel that the majority of our graduates share the above opinion, I am in this letter speaking unofficially, and as a private citizen Very sincerely yours,   Edward D. Toland
